CNN has been desperately treading water for years now. The former king of cable news has been bleeding ratings for years, with Fox News typically topping all the networks night after night. CNN still fancies itself the "most trusted name in news," yet, even former CEO Chris Licht admitted last year that that trust — assuming at one point they actually had it — is long gone and they need to restore it. He didn't last long.
The problem, of course, is that CNN claims to be fair and without bias, yet anti-conservative views have long been part of its DNA, as the network's on-air talent routinely bases its reports on Democratic Party talking points. Even token conservatives on the network are a joke, and sound more like liberal pundits.
The struggling network is now desperately trying to get out of its death spiral, and step one is to cut costs by axing the remaining big name talents who have extremely large salaries.
New CEO Mark Thompson is preparing ruthless cuts to remake the network as ratings plunge — leaving Anderson Cooper, Chris Wallace, Wolf Blitzer and Jake Tapper facing dates with the axman, a source says.
“Anderson knows he’s on the chopping block because he makes a whopping $20 million a year. He’s already started looking for a new gig!” a network insider exclusively tells In Touch. “Chris Wallace takes $8 million and figures he’s a likely target, too!”
Insiders say other network favorites — including $15 million man Blitzer and $8 million gent Tapper – are also bracing for the boot!

All they had to was to do their jobs.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch.
Is CNN still broadcast in airports complete with a hostage audience?
Ask me if I care.
Will it’s internal core collapse at one-third the speed of light, with the resulting rebound obliterating the rest of CNN in an explosion that will also vaporize the Earth, moon, and nearby planets?
Yes.
Haven't watched CNN for years, but that (the firing of Blitzer and Tapper) would be something to see! Let me know when it is scheduled to happen, and I'll tune in.
Take away their NEWS License because they do not deliver news. They deliver LIES, HALF TRUTHS and OPINIONS.
They had one job...
They pay these clowns MILLIONS? They deserve to go under...
Just another reason not to fly.
CNN is not the leak path of choice for even one of the 17 Intelligence Community overfunded orgs?

Maybe a big part of CNN's problems is that they pay talent like Cooper and Wallace such exorbitant salaries.
When they file Chapter 11, we’ll have to party.
